Outcome measures
Primary outcome
1. Number and type of extra-cardiac findings in CCT;
2. Percentage of tumour growth/ development in incidentally found pulmonary nodules at
follow-up CT and/or biopsy;
3. Imaging characteristics of (pre-)malignant nodules;
4. Number of cardiac findings in TCT (presence or absence of coronary stenosis and grade as well as other cardiac findings).
Secondary outcome
1. Percentage of exams performed according to the Fleischner criteria after discovery of a pulmonary nodule that are unchanged at follow-up.
Background summary
N/A
Study objective
1. DSCT-CA will detect additional relevant intrapulmonary abnormalities when the entire chest is included in the examination of the coronary arteries;
2. DSCT-CA of the coronary arteries in patients undergoing DSCT of the chest for non-coronary indications will yield additional clinically relevant diagnostic information;
3. Current follow-up frequency according to the Fleischner Society recommendations can be safely reduced in patients undergoing DSCT-CA of the coronary arteries in whom small pulmonary nodules (<8 mm) are found.
Study design
Medical records will be observed 2 years after first examination.
Intervention
None.
